Chris Brown Wants Battery Case Dismissed

Chris Brown’s lawyer, Mark Geragos, told the LA Superior Court on Wednesday that he intends to file a motion to dismiss the assault case against Brown because of police leaks in the investigation.

He implied that the case had been tampered with because of the photo of a badly beaten Rihanna that surfaced on the internet.

Despicable.

Geragos, who previously defended Michael Jackson during his child molestation case, is the slimiest of the slime. He thinks questioning police conduct is going to allow his abusive, sociopathic client to slither through. Sickening.

The case would next head for a preliminary hearing where Rihanna, 21, could be subpoenaed to testify. If scheduled, it will happen within eight court days of May 28th.

But that’s only if Brown doesn’t strike a plea deal beforehand. And he’s desperate for one, even if it means some jail time.

He’ll do anything to keep an account of what happened that night out of the public record.

That’s how diabolical it was.

For shame, Chris Brown.

F. Gary Gray's latest effort, Law Abiding Citizen, starring Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler, is a knockout! Exhilirating, wry and breathcatchingly paced, it's a stellar accomplishment for everyone involved. Hell yeah you should see it!

Scott Hicks, the director of Shine, and Clive Owen teamed up for this gloriously beautiful if underwhelming project. It's not that it's bad, it's just not that memorable and with such supreme talent attached, I was hoping for and expecting a lot more.

Oh, Diablo Cody, why'd you have to do it? I love you so long...and then you made this. Megan Fox does what she always does, she looks hot. At least there's that. Sophmoric, unfunny and obsessively idiosyncratic, it's a painful movie going experience.

Chocolate and peanut butter. Spaghetti and meatballs. Bobcat Goldthwait and profanity. Two great tastes that taste great together. Gone is the Bobcat of the Police Academy movies and in his stead is a fantastic writer-director who's able to orchestrate the most brilliantly, hilarious vulgarity imaginable. World's Greatest Dad is a fantastic dark comedy (very dark) that features Robin Williams' best performance since Good Will Hunting. See it!
